    On this channel we like to do a lot of dogfighting most videos are some sort of dogfight between 2 different aircraft as we explore their different capabilities. From time to time I like to dabble in Virtual Reality, I think VR is a great new technology and I love to show that stuff off for the channel from time to time.
    If you enjoy war thunder or Microsoft flight simulator 2020 or even dogfighting in Battlefield 2042, consider getting yourself into Digital Combat Simulator by Eagle Dynamics, the Combat side of Aviation with the BVR and Dogfights really provides a different and interesting perspective on aviation. You can fly all kinds of combat aircraft including the F-16, F-15, F-14, JF-17, Su-27, Mig-29, Mirage and the F-18 Hornet along with many other aircraft and helicopters like the Ka-50 and Mi-8.

    FACT: When they did Navy trial for the F-14A Tomcat in 1972 - 1973, the Navy tested by putting a high time F-4 Phantom pilot in the F-4 and a 30 hour F-14A Tomcat in the F-14A. They would set it up by placing F-4 behind the F-14 starting the attack with Tomcat completely defensive. Hoot Gibson was a veteran F-4 Phantom pilot and a test pilot who was placed in the Tomcat with barely 30 hours in the Tomcat. The F-14 would literally turn inside its own tail and get behind the F-4 Phantom in less than 15 seconds. Only 15 seconds for the Tomcat to go from fully defensive to fully offensive. Navy was astonished at the performance leap the Tomcat brought to the USN (previously, F-4 Phantom was completely outperforming the F-111B in trials before the project was killed). The Navy was so impressed that they declassified it and allowed Grumman and use that in their advertising in magazines.

      Not sure just how detailed the F-14's damage model is, but from where the warhead detonated (just behind the cockpit) it could conceivably have severed the wing pivot linkages allowing the wings to be blown back to full sweep by drag pressure. Or just an animation glitch, as someone else said.

      the point of getting new designs that are superior comes from technological advancements, sure, improving old designs with new technology might make them much better but at the end it becomes a marginal profit, the difference between the f4 and the f14 is shorter than the difference between the p51 and the f86

      @rebreaville9332 Před měsícem +8

      F-15E is in a totally different class. Kills F-4E fast. The F-4E was survivable in combat multi-bogey scenarios because a good crew could build SA and stiff arm the threats. My limited F-15E time indicated that it was the best jet in the world until the F-22 showed up. In BVR battle, the LANTIRN was useful but probably cannot talk about that…

      @@rebreaville9332 oh for sure in Bvr the strike eagle wins every time without breaking a sweat.

    Great example of why high-training-hours air forces are so deadly. Very much a technical victory - know the perfect rate band, know how to get there, know how to hold it there. The sort of thing that only comes with practice. Free in simulator but translates to real life training strategy. There is no substitute for experience/familiarity with the aircraft when it comes to wrestling absolute max performance out of it.

      Get a Brit variant much higher thrust to weight spey engine. But both the J and the Brit have no gun.

    • @inclusivemodeldesigns16
      @inclusivemodeldesigns16 Před měsícem +1

      @@imjashingyou3461 I guess it would not just have to be a J variant. I’m just curious as to if any other variants would make differences?

    • @nubbins70
      @nubbins70 Před měsícem +4

      probably even worse - F-4J no slats, different airframe and wings (I think?), weighed down by gunpod, etc.

    Duke Cunningham said in his fight with Col Tomb he would use rudder and not ailerons in the slow speeds to prevent wing stall and departing.

    • @smittywjmj
      @smittywjmj Před 23 dny

      That was standard practice for the F-4, at high AoA the spoilerons are obscured so roll control has to be done with the rudder.

  • @WardenWolf
    @WardenWolf Před měsícem

    The F-4 was an excellent platform, and one I think should have been developed further. Likewise the A-4 Skyhawk. I think the Skyhawk could have easily been made supersonic with a newer engine; it already had the airframe strength and aerodynamics, and was such a simple and effective platform that it should have been updated. The F-4 is probably my favorite looking fighter jet.
